Oh didn't know that. I read the other day if Bernie became president he would legalize marijuana federally with an executive order on day one and pardon everyone with weed related crimes. Not saying it's likely he wins but that would be crazy if that happened and the NFL was still handing out marijuana suspensions. I just imagine being a player after the league had another year where the ratings went up and owners raked in cash and this is all they can come up with? One more game and a 1% salary increase?

I don't see how the players could accept that. The players will get a 1.5% increase of the overall revenue which, depending on revenue growth, could add up to a decent increase over the current player salary structure.

I don't see how the players could accept that. It's not a 1% salary increase. They get 1% more of the total revenue with or without the 17th game. The 17th game gets them an additional half percent of the revenue share. If the current revenue adds an extra week to it, you're looking at. (17/16)*(48.5/47) Which is about a 9.6% increase in players' total funds. However the 17/16 may not be 100% accurate due to the playoffs skewing it a bit, so I think realistically you'd be looking at 8% more total for the players. Additionally, they're proposing minimums go up significantly and each year. Overall assuming those numbers, we'd see the Salary cap jump from ~201M to ~220M Edited February 21, 2020 by Danger 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as bad as I was saying. I still think players will decline and try to bargain for a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather things like an extra bye week, the status of franchise/transition tags, healthcare, pensions, roster sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Lions were interested in Malcolm Brown last year. Brown, tag/trade Fowler, Haventstein for Slay? Lions wouldnt take that. The Rams do not even have any picks so dont see this happening unless maybe its a Copper Kupp for Slay swap or maybe Taylor Rapp and a future 2nd rd pick. I just dont see the Rams having the assets to get Slay really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hukos Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Honestly, if the players do decide to strike, I can find other stuff to do in the interim period. I don't hate the billionaire owners, but if the players go on strike to get what they feel they deserve I don't have any problem with that at all. That's business. Go get yours and don't feel bad about it for a second. No one is entitled the right to watch football.

They dont have the picks it will require to trade for Darius Slay. Unless they do not want to pick until rd 4 this year? It would take their 2nd and 3rd rd pick to get Slay.

I’ll find other stuff to do in the interim but I may have a hard time coming back in supporting the current group of players, NFL ownership and management. If that is the move the players and owners want to take and have a lock out, I’m sure you’ll see a lot of fans take a break from the league.
